collections

In this episode, former CFO and current CEO of Brevis, Amit Dass discusses the important relationship between the CEO and CFO especially as CFOs are more involved than ever in every stage of the M&A process – from due diligence to integration.

We spoke to Dr. Jeff Saarela, VP of Collections and Research at the Canadian Museum of Nature (Ottawa, Canada). With over a century as Canada's natural history museum, the Museum of Nature is famous for its beautiful exhibits inside a rustic castle in downtown Ottawa. But the museum is more than just exhibits: there is a separate set of buildings, away from downtown Ottawa, with enormous collections of species and specimens - the majority of which haven't even been classified. Jeff walks us through the archives, the research done at the museum, and how anyone can get into the collections buildings to see the museum's hidden treasures.

EPISODE 43 -

The sale is not complete until the money is in the bank...but you must collect it first.

Collections are uncomfortable for everyone involved on both ends of the unfinished transaction - the flustered customer dodging the persistent calls of companies with outstanding invoices for goods or services rendered, as well as corporate employees tasked with the job of acquiring the money businesses are owed. In Collect the Cash: The Sale is not Complete Until the Money is in the Bank, financial expert and author Dee Bowden teaches the business of collections doesn't have to be miserable - but it must be done. In Collect the Cash, Dee shares her personal blueprint that has propelled her into success for over 10 years in the B2B (business to business) collections industry, boasting $13 million dollars (and counting) of outstanding debt recovered for corporations and government agencies.

Combining personal anecdotes with proven methods of tangible solutions, Collect the Cash is a practical guide teaching businesses at every level to collect their money with ease, ensuring that every invoice is paid in full or ensuring that no money is left behind.

Dee wrote Collect The Cash to teach small business owners to solve their cash flow issues.

In this episode, Director, Customer Success at Sidetrade Andrea Baker discusses best practices for finance teams to free up cash and fight inflation. Protecting and accelerating cash flow has never been so critical as bad debt risk and inflation are dramatically increasing everywhere. In today’s market climate, the cost of doing business is increasing more than 2% every 90 days. Delays in accounts receivable can lead to less working capital and less liquidity, making receivables the secret weapon during times of inflation.

In this episode, AVP of e-Invoicing at Sidetrade, Bryan Pederson and CEO and Chairman of the Board of OFS Portal LLC and Chair of PIDX International, Chris Welsh discuss a global initiative to improve the way buyers and suppliers transact on the open market, what global e-Invoicing standardization looks like, and the trends towards continuous transaction controls and upcoming e-Invoicing mandates.

In this episode, AVP at Sidetrade Bill North discusses an overlooked KPI called Time-to-Invoice. For many industries, Time-to-Invoice can represent a significant value and the hidden secret to reducing DSO. If more companies were to start the clock earlier in the order-to-cash cycle, DSO would actually be all encompassing, from the time that the product or service is sold through both invoice creation and invoice delivery. 

In this episode, Chief Financial Officer at Valley National Advisors, Elizabeth Wilson discusses how increasingly important it is for CFOs to be strategists and catalysts to help shape the overall strategy and direction of the business and infuse a financial, technological and data-driven mindset into the DNA of an organization.
